Hi.
As far as I can see
https://us-east.manta.joyent.com/rmustacc/public/webrevs/acpi/full/index.html
still misses reviewers . So it will not be in 2018.10 iso unless it will be
somehow integrated this week.
I know about the "vanilla" policy but perhaps we should considerate adding
the ACPI patches before the snapshot considering that they have been in
SmartOS and OmniOS for some time (also in the gcc-next repository).
Otherwise people will not be able to run the images at all on some
hardware...
Also I can already imagine the headlines on Phoronix "Cannot run
OpenIndiana for the 3rd snapshot in a row and it sucks" and the usually
bashing happening.
Just for understanding: If people switch off ACPI on boot, they
won't hit the problem ? If so, that workaround for newer hardware
should be mentioned in the release notes (although the Phoronix
guy will certainly not read them...).
